Arun Rajagopalan
Arun Rajagopalan is the Co-Founder and CEO of Motorq, a San Francisco-based connected vehicle data platform that gives enterprises direct access to OEM-embedded vehicle data without any aftermarket hardware. With a career arc that spans vehicle control systems engineering at Robert Bosch, strategy consulting at Booz & Company, and big-data leadership at Mu Sigma, Arun founded Motorq in 2016 to solve a deceptively simple problem: cars are generating enormous amounts of data, but that data is locked inside hundreds of incompatible systems. Motorq unlocks it, normalizes it, and pipes it to fleets, insurers, and OEM dealers through clean APIs. The company has raised $89.3M in total funding, including a $40M Series B led by Insight Partners in February 2022, and now has partnerships with 10 of the top global OEMs covering more than 51 million vehicles.
Vidit Jain
Vidit Jain is the co-founder of LocoNav, a full-stack AI-powered fleet management platform serving 500,000+ vehicle owners across 50+ countries. A mechanical-engineer-turned-software-builder, he pivoted from early-stage stints at ClearTax and Bizzy to co-found LocoNav in 2016 alongside Shridhar Gupta. The company has raised $47 million (including a $37M Series B in 2021) and tracks over 5 million vehicles globally, positioning itself as the emerging-market answer to Samsara. Vidit also angel-invests in startups and serves on one board.
